Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area

What decided it

The cumulative scale and form of the proposed development would substantially increase the bulk and massing of the dwelling, remove the distinctive symmetrical catslide roof that characterises the pair, and result in a visually assertive form that would not sit comfortably within the established streetscape, thereby conflicting with development plan policies and the NPPF.

Plan policies cited: Policy GR1 of the Harrow Local Plan 2021-2041, Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Supplementary Planning Document Residential Design Guide (2010)
